Bettina and her husband Albert aren’t happy – Bettina’s mother is staying for the holidays. Which is awkward.

Family, betrayal and the inescapable presence of the past reverberate through the UK regional premiere of Roland Schimmelpfennig’s razor-sharp comedy about the rise

Schimmelpfennig is the most performed playwright in Germany, with productions of his work worldwide in over 40 countries. Previous productions in the UK include The Golden Dragon and Arabian Night, both presented by Actors Touring Company.
